History texts/term papers are not fanfic because they are documents recording a specific series of events which are proven to have happened. They can become fanfic when those series of events are portrayed in such a way that paints historical events as being more favorable toward the country where those texts were written. IE, the lack of including certain people in history who had pivotal roles in wars so that your country looks better.

Dante's Inferno qualifies as fanfiction in the exact same way that Wicked is fanfiction. They are simply fanfiction that has been accepted as expansive literature. And in the same way that technically speaking, the New Testament is fanfiction of the original Torah of the Jewish people.

Fanfiction is simply taking a preexisting storyline and expanding upon it when you are not the original author of the story. Regardless of whether the author later says 'That's exactly what happened', it's still fanfiction. Because the original author didn't write it, and did not contract YOU to write it.

Dante held that Christianity was truth. However, he self-inserted his own avatar into an epic tale where he gets to buddy buddy with his idol and tromp through a Hell of his own description that was based on the Hell presented by scripture. Regardless of his intent for the story to mean, whether as wish-fulfillment or revenge or both, this qualifies as fanfiction because he is neither God nor one of the authors whose letters and articles make up the Christian Bible.
